Unexpected twist. New details emerge in Real Madrid's Diomande negotiations
Talks between Real Madrid and RB Leipzig over the transfer of Yann Diomande are far from complete. Despite numerous reports suggesting the winger's imminent move to the Spanish giants, no final agreement has been reached between the parties.
This was reported by journalist Florian Plettenberg. According to his sources, both club representatives and the player's entourage have confirmed that the sides haven't even reached a basic agreement. As such, reports of a done deal do not reflect the reality of the situation.

The source notes that negotiations are ongoing, but the German club remains calm and is not under any pressure. Although an agreement is still lacking, the Madrid side is considered the frontrunner for the 19-year-old Ivorian. However, the key issue—the transfer fee—remains unresolved.
Moreover, the race for Diomande is far from over. French powerhouse PSG is still monitoring the player and continues to hope they can swoop in for one of the most sought-after young wingers of this transfer window.
